DOG PICTURES!

Meet Zoë. It's been a little early to blog about her until this point. She's been opening up like a flower around us. When we first got her home she was very very wary of everything, including us. She ha d an odd way of showing it though: she'd stand stock still and let you do whatever you wanted to her.

Slowly, over the last three days, she's gotten much more relaxed around us, and now greets us at the door as one solid wiggle. Her back is so long that when she does that labrador full-body wag, she looks like a furry sine wave.

Goodness knows what breeds she is. The only thing I'm fairly certain of is yellow lab... check out that big otter tail -- it's at least a third of her hip width:

The cats are still understandably leery, though they're warming up too. Look, no one's even hissing this time:

At the moment, she's still pretty reserved. She doesn't have any commands -- none at all -- but she walks okay on a leash and came with an extra special bonus prize: housebreaking. No accidents whatsoever, at least so far. We've finally got her eating kibble -- thanks to Sol's mom who suggested mixing cornflakes in with her food to make it more appealing. It totally worked!

That's all for now. It's late. Say goodnight, Zoë.
